MixesDB:Tests/Tracklist Merger/Diff rules

Highlighting rules

• Don't highlight entire rows or trackText, when only a word or a character is different. For each matched and unmatched track go word by word, then single character per word.
• Go track by track as you did on the matching, do not compare complete texts.
• Don't use a similarity threshold for finding text differences.
• Treat cue, trackText and label as own groups when comparing.
• Never highlight blanks at the beginning or end of a highlight string.
• Never highlight prefix "# ".
